Vaskaboinikau Shows Queens; Mokri, Lococo Already Making Heads-Up Plans
Mikalai Vaskaboinikau raised to 16,000 from the hijack and Patrik Antonius called in the cutoff.
The flop came 7?J?2? and Vaskaboinikau led out for 15,000. Antonius called to the 2? turn, where he called another bet of 32,000.
Vaskaboinikau checked the J? river and Antonius checked behind. Vaskaboinikau showed Q?Q? and Antonius mucked, claiming he had two nines.
Alejandro Lococo is sporting a pink bucket hat at the table today, and Kayhan Mokri told him he has one just like that.
"If we get heads-up I'll go get it," Mokri told him.
"There's seven other players at the table and these two are already making plans for when they go heads-up. What they're going to wear, where it's going to be," Sam Grafton added. Mokri and Grafton then agreed to take shots together if they reach heads-up.
"I must warn you. I play better drunk," Mokri said.
